Best dating apps for long term relationships for men
Are there apps that are for long term relationship men? I heard there are lots of new apps and wondering if I should join them instead of the main stream one.
There are quite a few apps and websites for singles who are looking to get married within the next few years.
Mostly experienced matchmaker services and religious based 'dating for marriage' sites.

Why do you think you need to use a dating app, as opposed to meeting people in real life?
if op was asking for a good laptop brand, you wouldn't recommend they build their own pc. im sure everyone is aware they can also meet people irl & it's fine to use dating apps to increase your reach, especially in this decade

Things you need to pay for like EHarmony.
Free dating apps are meat markets, full of hordes of desperate men who will validate even the fattest or most unattractive woman in the naive belief they would sleep with them.

Apples and oranges and I haven't recommended anything, merely asked a valid question. Not everyone is honest online, common interests come into play and you've got to meet in person at some point, so why is that not being considered? How many threads are there on here where people have problems with someone they claim they are 'talking to', when it's just messaging?
This is just my personal opinion, but I'd say none.
Even stats show that most men use dating apps to have one night stands.
I'd say meet someone in a natural way. Trust me, you'll meet someone when you least expect it.
You could potentially use dating apps to try and meet new people and go on dates and find out your likes/dislikes getting more confident with meeting new people.
Obviously, I can't speak for everyone, you never know, of course there are people on dating apps who are also looking for long term relationships.

If you're serious about it, then I would suggest you look towards the apps that are specialists in whatever demographic(s) you fit into. Furthermore, if any app has particularly good reviews / feedback, it's probably worth paying for the premium membership.
You haven't mentioned anything about you or your background so no one here can recommend any apps that are likely to work particularly well for you specifically. Maybe have a think about your background, interests and what you want (e.g. age professional / social status, religion etc.), and then look at the apps that focus on those things. You won't get as many matches as, say Tinder... but the ones you do are far more likely to lead somewhere.
Failing that, look to apps that are more relationship focused (e.g. Match).

can you explain how to meet someone in a natural way?

Just going out to wherever people socialise IRL. Traditionally this is the pub/ club route, but you can also meet new people if you join a sports or an evening class (of whatever takes your fancy). The latter is good because the nature of the club gives you something real / natural in common with others there and also provides a safe talking point (there's a reason it's a common suggestion on threads like this).
Alternatively, if people are hanging out somewhere like a park or a beach, they can often be open to talking to new people (provided you're not coming across as weird, creepy etc.). If you're a teenager, I often see them talking to each other in places like shopping malls.
These methods have been working for people for centuries (if not millennia), dating apps / websites have only been around for the past 20-30 years or so.
It's not rocket science.

There you go
Obviously you need to be smart about this, and think of sports that girls are likely to be interested in. I know nowadays more girls are getting into football thanks to the Lionesses who've really raised the profile... but they're still separated from the male classes.
Sports like Volleyball, mixed hockey, and more traditional martial arts (e.g. Karate, Taekwondo, judo etc.) tend to have pretty much a 50/50 male / female ratio. On the other hand most styles of dance classes (e.g. Jazz, ballroom, hip-hop etc.) tend to have slightly more girls, so tips the odds in your favour. The exception is break-dancing, which still tends to be more male dominated.
I need to stress the important / critical thing here is that you have a natural interest in whatever it is you're doing. If the people clock on that you're only interested in getting your end away, they'll quickly ostracise you from their groups, if not the whole club... so think carefully about what you choose to do.
Go there, get fit and get a girlfriend
Thanks
Where do you find these societies/ clubs? I use Meetup but these groups are so far away

Just do a Google search for them, and that should throw up plenty of suggestions. Do a search for the name of whatever takes your interest and add your town name or postcode.
For example, you could type in "Taekwondo Classes *YOUR TOWN NAME*" or "Hip Hop dance clubs *YOUR POSTCODE*" and it should bring up a few websites, links etc. of what's closest to you. At the very least, you'll get a location and opening time from Google maps
Alternatively, go to your local College / local leisure centre and ask about classes there.
